I believe that's a remake & this is the original

IIRC Pickett did the song on a variety show of the time (Dinah Shore?), complete w/girl group backing singers. But this clip has never surfaced

Boris Karloff (!) did the song on Shindig, but that footage too has never turned up.

Here's a cover by The Bonzos
